Mummy Or Lead

by Goremall

supported by

Red88Rex Incredibly unique ancient Egypt themed dark wave album, make sure to read the story, it makes it even better. Amazing listen from start to finish! Favorite track: Queen Cleodonna's Trance.

SteveSynth This album is without a doubt the most creative and original release from Goremall to date. IMO the best synth albums are based on well thought-out and constructed themes, such the Egyptian sound so beautifully incorporated into this artist's unique dark and funky style, which was clearly defined in 'Graveyard Diner', but has been expanded on in 'Mummy or Lead'. Also Pyramid-head Horse for the win!!! Favorite track: Revenge From East To West.

palehorse666 Egyptian darksynth is something I can get into. especially when it's as funky as this. Favorite track: Her Undead Army.

Cheveu Miracle There's Pyramid Head's horse on the cover so I have to re-baptize the album "Silent Lead". *snigger*

Byron Synth Possibly Goremall's best LP! The dark ancient Egyptian style is a breath of fresh air in a genre of music that today is so full of generic and derivative fluff. Hats off to Jon Ball on an excellent concept and executing it so well while maintaining Goremall's integral slasher horror linchpin - 9/10 Favorite track: Sister's Betrayal.

about

Mummy or Lead tells the story of Princess Arsinoe IV, sister of Cleodonna III ruler of Egypt from 5000 B.C. - 4087 B.C. Long ago, Arsinoe being the older sister was set to rule as queen of Egypt following the death of the previous heir, Cynthion Lopmhet VII. Jealous of Arsinoe, Cleodonna tricked her sister on a dark night to meet at the Temple of The Sphinx. Knowing Arsinoe's death would crown her queen, Cleodonna fought her sister and was victorious. Arsinoe vowed revenge in her last breath.

Cleodonna took Arinoe's corpse on the ghost train of Cairo far west where no man or woman in Egypt would find her and buried the would be queen deep in the Caribbean jungles in an oblong tomb to mock her sister. With no other to rule Egypt, Queen Cleodonna reigned a brutal kingdom until her death in 4087 B.C.

Millenniums later in the year 1885 A.D. a gifted gunsmith and archaeologist named Clive Beastwood found Arsinoe's tomb. unknowingly upon opening the tomb, he released the princess. Taking pity on her, he taught her to use modern weapons and crafted a gold revolver with infinite bullets to slay the undead army of Cleodonna.

Queen Cleodonna, though being death for many years, lived on through her undead army. The ancient Egyption heirs to the thrown were buried in a coffin with their blood drained into the Earth. The vegetation and any living thing made from the queen's blood would hold her soul and be entranced by the queen for life.

Princess Arsinoe's revenge had to be thorough to eliminate all living things containing the blood of her sister. When the bloodline has been severed, Queen Cleodonna returned in her natural form. Unable to challenge the weapons of Arsinoe Queen Cleodonna's head was taken from her body, and the mummy of Arsinoe lived to rule Egypt for centuries.

It's hard to pick a favourite track. This is the only album i have so far deemed as "perfect", where every track, even the intro, is just a masterpiece in its own right. From the hard hitting Perturbator's Theme to the emotional title track, its 68 minutes of perfection. 10/10. connivingkhajiit

GosT was one of the first synth artists I discovered after Look Mum No Computer and Mega Drive and this album remains an all-time favourite. I've been listening to it for years thanks to the free download policy and it's about time I gave a little back. agentorangejuice
